This paper deals with the design of discrete-time algorithms for the robust filtering differentiator. Two discrete-time realizations of the filtering differentiator are introduced. The first one, which is based on an exact discretization of the continuous differentiator, is an explicit one, while the second one is an implicit algorithm which enables to remove the numerical chattering phenomenon and to preserve the estimation accuracy properties. Some numerical comparisons between the proposed scheme and an existing discrete-time algorithm show the interest of the proposed implicit discrete-time realization of the filtering differentiator, especially when large sampling periods are considered.

We present a framework for systematically combining data of an unknown linear time-invariant system with prior knowledge on the system matrices or on the uncertainty for robust controller design. Our approach leads to linear matrix inequality (LMI) based feasibility criteria which guarantee stability and performance robustly for all closed-loop systems consistent with the prior knowledge and the available data. The design procedures rely on a combination of multipliers inferred via prior knowledge and learnt from measured data, where for the latter a novel and unifying disturbance description is employed. While large parts of the paper focus on linear systems and input-state measurements, we also provide extensions to robust output-feedback design based on noisy input-output data and against nonlinear uncertainties. We illustrate through numerical examples that our approach provides a flexible framework for simultaneously leveraging prior knowledge and data, thereby reducing conservatism and improving performance significantly if compared to black-box approaches to data-driven control.
This paper presents an iterative algorithm to compute a Robust Control Invariant (RCI) set, along with an invariance-inducing control law, for Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems. As the real-time measurements of the scheduling parameters are typically available, in the presented formulation, we allow the RCI set description along with the invariance-inducing controller to be scheduling parameter dependent. The considered formulation thus leads to parameter-dependent conditions for the set invariance, which are replaced by sufficient Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) conditions via Polyas relaxation. These LMI conditions are then combined with a novel volume maximization approach in a Semidefinite Programming (SDP) problem, which aims at computing the desirably large RCI set. In addition to ensuring invariance, it is also possible to guarantee performance within the RCI set by imposing a chosen quadratic performance level as an additional constraint in the SDP problem. The reported numerical example shows that the presented iterative algorithm can generate invariant sets which are larger than the maximal RCI sets computed without exploiting scheduling parameter information.
Magnetic levitation positioning technology has attracted considerable research efforts and dedicated attention due to its extremely attractive features. The technology offers high-precision, contactless, dust/lubricant-free, multi-axis, and large-stroke positioning. In this work, we focus on the accurate and smooth tracking problem of a multi-axis magnetically levitated (maglev) planar positioning system for a specific S-curve reference trajectory. The floating characteristics and the multi-axis coupling make accurate identification of the system dynamics difficult, which lead to a challenge to design a high performance control system. Here, the tracking task is achieved by a 2-Degree of Freedom (DoF) controller consisting of a feedforward controller and a robust stabilizing feedback controller with a prescribed sparsity pattern. The approach proposed in this paper utilizes the basis of an H-infinity controller formulation and a suitably established convex inner approximation. Particularly, a subset of robust stabilizable controllers with prescribed structural constraints is characterized in the parameter space, and so thus the re-formulated convex optimization problem can be easily solved by several powerful numerical algorithms and solvers. With this approach, the robust stability of the overall system is ensured with a satisfactory system performance despite the presence of parametric uncertainties. Furthermore, experimental results clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
A robust Learning Model Predictive Controller (LMPC) for uncertain systems performing iterative tasks is presented. At each iteration of the control task the closed-loop state, input and cost are stored and used in the controller design. This paper first illustrates how to construct robust invariant sets and safe control policies exploiting historical data. Then, we propose an iterative LMPC design procedure, where data generated by a robust controller at iteration $j$ are used to design a robust LMPC at the next $j+1$ iteration. We show that this procedure allows us to iteratively enlarge the domain of the control policy and it guarantees recursive constraints satisfaction, input to state stability and performance bounds for the certainty equivalent closed-loop system. The use of an adaptive prediction horizon is the key element of the proposed design. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is illustrated on a linear system subject to bounded additive disturbance.
Appropriate greenhouse temperature should be maintained to ensure crop production while minimizing energy consumption. Even though weather forecasts could provide a certain amount of information to improve control performance, it is not perfect and forecast error may cause the temperature to deviate from the acceptable range. To inherent uncertainty in weather that affects control accuracy, this paper develops a data-driven robust model predictive control (MPC) approach for greenhouse temperature control. The dynamic model is obtained from thermal resistance-capacitance modeling derived by the Building Resistance-Capacitance Modeling (BRCM) toolbox. Uncertainty sets of ambient temperature and solar radiation are captured by support vector clustering technique, and they are further tuned for better quality by training-calibration procedure. A case study that implements the carefully chosen uncertainty sets on robust model predictive control shows that the data-driven robust MPC has better control performance compared to rule-based control, certainty equivalent MPC, and robust MPC.
